Non BASE jumpers are not subject to the BASE code of ethics (as if condoning and abetting illegal activities can ever be ethical



Neither BASE jumping nor tresspassing is in breach of any UK law.



In that case, why all the fuss?

The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

I think it's kind of funny that it's named in the BASE Zone but not here. I agree that it's a good idea not to share site names with non-BASE jumpers, despite when it gets written about in the media. Skydivers looking to try some BASE are going to be reading about it here, and if they find names of sites that they think are jumpable, they might just go do it themselves rather than finding an experienced BASE jumper/mentor that can take them to the site and evaluate the weather conditions and the other jumpers gear, training, and experience and make a better decision on whether or not it's reasonably safe for them to jump.
